Hi all,
Im having trouble getting the rebound set up correctly, its realy slow and i want it quite fast, so i turn the bottom knob counter clockwise, but it doensnt seem to be making any difference, what am i doing wrong.

The shocks are uturn 2008 rockshox pikes 454.

Thanks

right with the bike upsidedown (bars on the floor)
the rebound leg on the right (from the front of the bike)
you turn left to get it faster and right to slow it donw

Maybe try turning your blue knob to make the compression easier.

The forks compress easier or harder when you turn the blue knob.

nope thats floodgate !
its not a nob if you pull it off there is an allen key socket (your rebound adjuster wil fit it) but i would not f*ck about with that as you dont seem to know what your doing lol and if you have f*cked about with it then thats probs why your rebound dosent works
